| 4.5 superb | WhiteNoise | September 27th 11 |
Probably the most under rated punk album from the original movement. This is easily just as fun/powerful/simple as Never Mind the Bollocks, The Clash and Raw Power.

The Saints with this album (and their whole presence) helped define the shape and direction of Australian punk in their day and to come.

The Saints were the Australian unsung heroes of the punk rock movement, inauspiciously overshadowed by the Sex Pistols, Ramones and The Clash. And yet no less important. The album titled opening track I'm Stranded burns the house down with its brash take no prisoners ferocity. However the real strength of the band's talent is found during its Replacements zen transformative Messin' With The Kid. Closing with Nights In Venice is the auditory experience of a stage set destroyed unrivaled since Cobain's emergence decades later.

Taking the frenetic pace of the Ramones, the simple hooks of the Stooges and the frayed energy of the Sex Pistols, the Saints' debut album remains the greatest Australian punk album to date. The full throttle rev of the title track and the epic, extended white noise of 'Nights In Venice' make the album a textbook punk classic, but neither the Ramones, Stooges, Pistols or Clash recorded a ballad as brilliant and ragged as 'Messin' With The Kid.'
